La Cambusa Memories Since Early '90s
We first visited La Cambusa back in 1994, with my parents. My Dad and I just fell in love with the wine shop and learned a lot about Italian wines (and Stresa) from Rosaria. We did a few tastings and ended up overspending on some amazing Barolos. We've been back to Stresa several times since and La Cambusa might be my favorite wine store in the world, largely due to the rich family history there. Recently, we did a "Taste of Italy" wine tasting with newlyweds from Finland (we are from California, near Napa Valley) with Beatrice hosting. The wines were excellent, the winery knowledge completing our understanding, and Beatrice was very easy to talk with. The crudities served with the wines were almost a meal by themselves. But back to the richness of the experience, first for my father, and now with my wife. After over 3 decades, I can say that I will always look forward to returning...
